Eighteenth International Unicode Conference
April 24-27, 2001
Harbour Plaza Hotel, Hong Kong
Invitation to Exhibit
THE CONFERENCE:
The Internet and the World Wide Web continue to change the shape of
computing. The goal of network computing and understandable text
access across wide, diverse groups of people has brought great
momentum to computing environments that build Unicode into their
foundation. Whether it's Internet commerce, network access to data,
or highly portable applications, Unicode makes a solid foundation
for the network, global enterprises, and software users everywhere.
The Eighteenth International Unicode Conference will address
topics ranging from Unicode use in the World Wide Web and in
operating systems and databases, to the latest developments with
Unicode 3.0, Java, Open Source, XML and Web protocols. Conference
attendees will include managers, software engineers, systems
analysts, and product marketing personnel responsible for the
development of software supporting Unicode, as well as those
involved in all aspects of the globalization of software and the
Internet.
